The Inspiring Interns blog

Having created thousands of internships, and written a book about them too, we like to think we can offer some pretty solid advice to students and graduates looking to kick-start their career. If you want to see our latest opportunities, click here.

When we leave university we’d all like to think that we’d walk into our dream job. Many graduates will look for careers in medicine, law, marketing, designing and writing, among other popular vocations. However, if you don’t want to follow the crowd and would rather spend your life doing something a little more niche then how about becoming a Smarties expert, MILF Commander or bride kidnapping specialist. Yes, these are real job titles!

1. Chocolate Beer Specialist
Who wouldn’t want to be a specialist in chocolate and beer or even chocolate beer?

2. Pork Rind Expert
I wonder how exactly you become an expert in a snack product?

3. Head of Potatoes
I would love to know the responsibilities of this role…

4. Bride Kidnapping Expert
I’m intrigued to know how exactly you become an expert in bride kidnapping? And how much work he actually gets…

5. Writer/Wizard/Mail Santa/Rasputin impersonator
This guy has not one but four job titles, three of which are pretty unusual.

6. Pornography Historian
Who knew the world needed one of these?

7. Smarties Expert
With all that sugar in their systems it must be a right party when all the Smarties experts get together!

8. MILF Commander
I wish I could get hold of a job description for this role…

Have you ever noticed any weird job titles when watching TV? We would love to hear them!
